Welcome to St. Thomas University.

Through the news and events, photos and videos, and academic programme information available throughout this site, you will discover why St. Thomas offers one of the most distinctive educations in Canada.

No other Canadian university specializes as exclusively in the liberal arts, and many of our academic programmes are unique in this region. Our cornerstone bachelor of arts degree offers more than 30 fields of study, and our focus on students - with engaged professors, small class sizes and amazing course selections - make St. Thomas one of the best undergraduate universities in the country.

Our beautiful campus is located on a hill overlooking the St. John River in the friendly and culturally rich capital city of Fredericton. Within our community, students, faculty and staff respect, trust and enjoy one another.

Students have the opportunity to delve into the great ideas, read seminal texts and have great dialogue. They make life-long friends and gain the confidence and perspective they will need to keep their balance and thrive in the world they will enter.

We’re a small school that cares about our students and also an effective and powerful university. We have graduated two Rhodes Scholars in the past six years, and hundreds of students from dozens of countries who have gone on to advanced studies and successful careers in Canada, the United States and around the world.

After visiting this site, I hope that you are encouraged to share in our goals and accomplishments.
